episode 018: Juno Kim

Author: with May Globus May 26, 2021 Duration: 1:04:27
Juno Kim is a man with a deep, deep soul. He became a household name among the food and creative worlds after launching Juno Kim Catering, marking his successful run in the culinary space, despite any formal training. The son of immigrants from South Korea, he spent much of his childhood moving from city to city, school to school. After graduating from university, he found himself becoming a chef, reimagining people’s sensory experiences with food with his intricate seasonal dishes to great acclaim, before a major burn out in 2017 led to a period of self-exploration. In this layered conversation, we dive into his childhood, his reintroduction to meditation, a passion for matcha and the ceremony of tea, what it means to thrive in the world, and more.

There’s a particular texture to a life built around creating something meaningful, whether that’s a business, a work of art, or a new path forward. The Craft with May Globus pulls back the curtain on those lives through unhurried, intimate dialogues. May sits down with a diverse range of creators, founders, and pioneers, but the focus here is less on glossy success stories and more on the raw material of their journeys. You’ll hear the nuances of their creative process, the pivotal moments in their personal backstory, and how their philosophy shapes their daily existence. It’s an ongoing exploration of the shared humanity behind different kinds of work. What makes this podcast uniquely immersive is its commitment to being an audio-visual experience. Each conversation is accompanied by rich, editorial-style photography that provides a deeper, more sensory connection to the guest and their world. Think of it like a beautifully composed magazine feature that you can listen to, where the images and the dialogue work in concert. Tuning into this podcast feels like gaining quiet, privileged access to the minds of people who are thoughtfully shaping culture, one idea at a time.
